THIS IS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME RELEASE! ONLY 100 SETS AVAILABLE!

We have an extremely limited quantity of Original Stud Playing Cards available. These are some of the rarest decks of cards in the world. They will sell out so act fast and get yours today.

Each set of Original Stud Playing Cards comes with 2 decks (one red, one blue). These are the "old style" studs that were printed before 2006 at the USPCC factory in Cincinatti, Ohio. These are unopened and have the original box design, Arrco faces, a blue seal, ultra-thin stock and feature the original bright box colors. Each set comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

What are Stud Playing Cards? In 1980, Walgreens began producing Stud Playing Cards. With their remarkably thin stock, perfectly balanced feel and delightfully light colors, they quickly became a favorite deck of cards among magicians. However, in 2006, the company decided to modernize the popular playing cards with a complete makeover. The result was essentially a completely different deck of cards that lacked the handling and charm of its predecessor. Since then, Original Stud Playing Cards (pre-2006) have been some of the most sought after decks of cards in the world, fetching outrageous prices on the secondary market.

Please note: these two packs were originally hung at Walgreens via a plastic tag. This tag caused slight rips or frays in the outer sleeve of some of these two-packs. The inner tuck boxes and cards are still in pristine condition though.

Customer reviews for Stud Playing Cards (2 Deck Set)

Reviewer

Look I will be upfront...I didn't buy these they came to me because I managed to save my pennies during the year and purchase some great magic from Vanishing. I don't know the history but a first glance they look like a cheap pack of cards. Yea I know some card purists will want to tar and feather me for saying that but at 100usd I would have expected they come a little better presented. Since these were in a give away I am guessing that not too many people were rushing out and purchasing these. So the bottom line is if you are a card collector and think this will suit your collecting buy these...if not I don't know what the hype is about other than a sense of nostalgia.

  • Jason asks: Are both of these decks individually sealed and cellophaned inside the dual-box? Just wondering if the value drops if you open the dual-box to display the individual decks?

    • 1. Álvaro answers: You can safely open the box to find both individual decks, only without cellophane, but with both seals intact. Completely ready to be displayed
